So I just read an article by John Dvorak. The title is “Creative Commons Humbug”, but it might just as well be, “I’m clueless and snarky”.
I had a nice post all thought out in which I make fun of little John, but the Slashdotters are doing a much better job of it that I could. My personal favorite:
“Looks like I need to add another quote to my long standing list of jack-assery from Dvorak:
1998 Folks, the Mac platform is through – totally.
1990 I think Windows 3.0 will get a lot of attention; people will check it out, and before long they’ll all drift back to… DOS.
1986 UNIX is dead, but no one bothered to claim the body.
1984 The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a mouse. There is no evidence that people want to use these things.
– John Dvorak”
